DeGarmo is a master of what he does. So classy. They all are at that point in time. That drum section build up after the solo is superb. Excellent song. This is tangentially related to QR; but I know the 90s get's hated on as a bad time for metal but there was a lot of great stuff back then. Even when "grunge killed everything".

Agreed. For me, QR was epic. Everyone was at the top of their game. I'm generally not a "concept album" lover, but they weaved a story through a series of songs in a way that was truly masterful. That, combined with great musicianship and unapproachable vocals, was special. It's sad that egos and drama brought it to an end. An all too familiar story...
I Love the smell of nitrocellulose in the morning. It smells like........Victory
Mindcrime is a perfect album. Degarmo is a beast and a really nice guy, too. I was at their New Years Eve show when the album hit. Metal Church opened the show.
Saw them open up for Metallica in ‘89. I think Grimes was there too at the LB Arena. I was a wee kid completely engrossed in Mindcrime. Oddly enough, I enjoyed the bass playing and tone. I think the guy played Spectors. I associate how the bass stood out in Mindcrime with how KingsX plays/records.
Yeah Queensryche was one of my favorite bands growing up. My favorite era was from Rage For Order to Empire.

Totally agreed, love some Queensryche. I think I'm gonna listed to mindcrime on my way to dallas next weekend, been a while since I listened to it in it's entirety
That btw is the sound of a Spector with a internal HAZ preamp , so much rock had a Spector on the tracks back in the day , has that clear ballsy kinda gritty sound right outta the box , just like the op vid . Great fucking basses .
